K EYLESS E NTER N G O P ASSIVE E NTRY (I F E QUIPPED ) The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle Passive Entry system if it is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these devices may block the key fob's wireless signal and prevent the Passive Entry door handle from locking/unlocking the vehicle. NOTE: Either the driver’s door only or all doors will unlock when you grab hold of the front driver’s door handle, depending on the selected setting in the Uconnect system Ъ page189.
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry system and a feature of Keyless Enter ‘n Go™. This feature allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the key fob lock or unlock buttons. To Unlock From The Driver or Passenger Side: All doors will unlock when the front passenger door handle is grabbed regardless of the driver’s door unlock preference setting. 2 With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5ft (1.5m) of the door handle, grab the handle to unlock the vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door handle will unlock the driver’s door automatically. Grabbing the passenger door handle will unlock all doors automatically.
The interior door panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked. Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key Fob In Vehicle: NOTE: To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature which will function if the ignition switch is in the OFF position. Passive Entry may be programmed on/off within Uconnect Settings Ъ page189. If wearing gloves or if it has been raining/ snowing on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower response time.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the door panel switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors have been closed the vehicle checks the inside and outside of the vehicle for any valid Passive Entry key fobs. If one of the vehicle's Passive Entry key fobs is detected inside the vehicle, and no other valid Passive Entry key fobs are detected outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry system automatically unlocks all vehicle doors and chirps the horn three times (on the third attempt ALL doors will lock and the Passive Entry key fob can be locked in the vehicle).
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and no door is opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will relock and if equipped will arm the security alarm. The Vehicle Security system can be armed/ disarmed by pushing the Passive Entry key fob lock/unlock buttons (if equipped). Grab The Door Handle To Unlock
